After Action Report
The Hornets ran roughshod over the Pacers 125-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
